Vulnerabilities Probed

<
Name
Description
CVE
Open Recursive DNS Server Typically, DNS servers only provide recursive DNS services to machines within a trusted domain. A server with this vulnerability is providing recursive DNS service to any host on the Internet. Restricting recursion and disabling the ability to send additional delegation information can help prevent DNS-based DoS attacks and cache poisoning. It can also improve performance on your network by reducing the vulnerability of your DNS servers to use as a reflector in such an attack.

Fix:See The Continuing Denial of Service Threat Posed by DNS Recursion for more information.

CVE-1999-0512
Null Session A Null Session occurs when an attacker sends a blank username and blank password to try to connect to the IPC$ (Inter Process Communication) pipe. By creating a null session to IPC$ an attacker is then able to gain a list of user names, shares, and other potentially sensitive information. Note: If you have run this Retina scan with Administrator level access to your network then you will always be able to create a null session and therefore this is a false positive and not a vulnerability.

Fix:Important: Make sure to test the following configuration changes carefully before deployment to production systems, especially on domain controllers and in other environments where anonymous access may be in legitimate use.

Open the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa registry key, then perform the following steps appropriate to the system's version of Windows.

On Windows NT 4.0:

  • Create or modify the RestrictAnonymous registry value (type REG_DWORD) to contain a value of 1. Note that a reboot will be required in order for this change to take effect.

  • This vulnerability cannot be fully mitigated on Windows NT 4.0, as only user and share enumeration will be prevented with this setting. Further null session restriction is possible starting with Windows 2000.
  • On Windows 2000:

  • Create or modify the RestrictAnonymous registry value (type REG_DWORD) to contain a value of 2. This setting will take effect immediately, although existing null sessions will not be affected.
  • A value of 2 will not allow a null session to be established.
  • On Windows XP and Windows Server 2003:

  • Create or modify the RestrictAnonymous registry value (type REG_DWORD) to contain a value of 1.

  • Create or modify the RestrictAnonymousSAM registry value (type REG_DWORD) to contain a value of 1.

  • Create or modify the EveryoneIncludesAnonymous registry value (type REG_DWORD) to contain a value of 0.

  • A reboot will be required in order for these changes to take effect.
  • CVE-2000-1200
    Anonymous Registry Remote access to the server's registry was granted. This is a very serious vulnerability. This can lead to an attacker remotely compromising your machine.

    Fix:Set the security permissions on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\system\CurrentcontrolSet\Control\SecurePipeServers Key: winreg so that only administrators have access.

    CVE-1999-0562
    NetBus backdoor A backdoor is a program an attacker can place on a machine to gain access to resources at a later date.

    Fix:If NetBus is not authorized then it is recommended that you remove it.
    Locate and delete the following registry key:
    Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    Path: Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    Key: SysEdit
    Reboot your computer.
    Do a file search for sysedit.exe and keyhook.dll and delete them.

    Fix:Upgrade to the latest version of the SSH service.

    Open NFS Share It is recommended that you close this NFS mount. An attacker could probably mount and read files on this partition. You can close this mount by limiting the systems that can connect to it or removing it completely.

    Fix:Follow your NFS server instructions on how to remove or restrict an NFS Share.

    CVE-1999-0554
    IMail IMonitor buffer overflow vulnerability Ipswitch IMail 5.0 and earlier exhibits a buffer overflow in its IMonitor service (typically port 8181) through which a remote attacker can crash the server or cause it to execute malicious code by sending a long string of 2045 or more characters.

    CVE-2002-0083
    Microsoft Site Server Information Leakage and Data Modification Microsoft Site Server is vulnerable to flaws that may allow attackers to view sensitive information, cause a denial of service, exploit trust relationships through cross-site scripting attacks, and execute arbitrary code. These flaws are caused by insufficient access controls on administrative pages, unsafe use of default login and password, and improper parsing of user-supplied data in URLs. Remote attackers can use the default login and password to gain access to privileged information, including scripts in the /SiteServer/Admin/ directory and the /_mem_bin/ directories, and may be able to use anonymous login privileges to remotely browse the LDAP server and gain access to plaintext passwords of other LDAP accounts. Additionally, remote attackers can also execute denial of service attacks by using the anonymous account to upload very large files to the /Sites/Publishing/Users/ directory, and can upload and execute files by utilizing scripts in the /SiteServer/Publishing directory that use the /scripts/cphost.dll object.

    Fix:Install the latest service pack available from the Microsoft Site Server support site.

    CVE-1999-0834
    SQL Server Unchecked Buffer in MDAC Function The Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) provide a number of supporting technologies for accessing and using databases. Included among these functions is the underlying support for the T-SQL OpenRowSet command. A security vulnerability results because the MDAC functions underlying OpenRowSet contain an unchecked buffer.
    An attacker who submitted a database query containing a specially malformed parameter within a call to OpenRowSet could overrun the buffer, either for the purpose of causing the SQL Server to fail or causing the SQL Server service to take actions dictated by the attacker.

    Fix:Install Service Pack 2 for SQL Server 2000 from Microsoft.

    CVE-2002-0695
    SQL 2000 Resolution Service Overflows (Sapphire Worm) There are three security vulnerabilities here. The first two are buffer overflows. By sending a carefully crafted packet to the Resolution Service, an attacker could cause portions of system memory (the heap in one case, the stack in the other) to be overwritten. Overwriting it with carefully selected data could allow the attacker to run arbitrary code.
    The third vulnerability is a remote DoS.

    Fix:Install Service Pack 3 for SQL Server 2000 from Microsoft.

    CVE-2002-0649
    SQL 2000 password encryption buffer overflow Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP2 and earlier contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in the routine that encrypts SQL Server credentials.

    Fix:Install the latest SQL Server 2000 Service Pack.

    CVE-2002-0624
    SQL Server SQLXML Remote Overflow Microsoft SQL Server 2000 includes a feature called SQLXML that allows the server to handle SQL queries and responses via XML. IIS enables XML over HTTP using SQLXML HTTP components, one of which is an ISAPI extension. Proper bounds checking is not made on a field of this query, allowing remote arbitrary code execution.

    Fix:Install Service Pack 2 for SQL Server 2000 from Microsoft.

    SQL 2000 multiple XP buffer overflows Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP2 and earlier contains buffer overflow vulnerabilities in many of its extended stored procedures (XPs).
